COVID-19 response

To help support Albertans self-isolating and practicing social distancing, we are extending expiry dates for Alberta driver’s licences, vehicle registrations and other permits and certificates until May 15, 2020.

For more information, visit COVID-19 info for Albertans.

Overview

Vehicle registrations expire on an assigned month based on your surname. You can look up your expiry date on the registration expiry date chart. Or, check your licence plate tags or registration certificate.

There are 3 options to renew your registration.

Renew online

The online site can only be used if you are renewing your registration without changes. If you require any changes to your registration, for example a name or address change, you must apply for the renewal in person at a registry agent office.

If you have any outstanding fines, you won’t be able to renew your registration online. If you choose to pay your fines online first, you must wait a couple days for the payment to process before you can renew online.

If you are less than 10 business days away from your expiry date on your registration, please renew your registration in person.

To renew online, you’ll need:

your vehicle registration certificate

the insurance details from your pink card

a credit card (VISA, MasterCard or American Express)

a current web browser (Internet Explorer 6 or higher, Firefox, Chrome or Safari)
